Ground Floor
The house is approached via a generous vestibule opening into a central reception hall. To one side lies an impressive open-plan kitchen, fitted with a range of contemporary units, integrated appliances, a gas AGA, and a central island. This space opens into a dining room enjoying a pleasant aspect to the front. Clever pocket doors allow the kitchen and dining room to be separated when desired, offering flexibility between open-plan living and more intimate entertaining.
On the opposite side of the hall is the formal lounge, a beautifully proportioned room with a west-facing bay window. To the rear of the property, a further sitting room features patio doors - stunning original leaded stained glass - opening directly to the garden. Completing the ground floor is a well-appointed bathroom with separate shower, a utility room with washing machine, a pantry, and access to a good-sized garage with electricity and water supply.

A fine staircase rises from the reception hall to the first floor, where the principal bedroom sits to the front, enjoying an elevated west-facing bay window and abundant afternoon and evening sunlight.

A fifth bedroom, formerly the maid’s room and now ideal as a study or office, is accessed by a secondary staircase.
Outside Space
The villa sits within a private garden, with a sheltered rear section leading around the side to the front parking area. Mature trees, established hedging, and planted borders provide colour and privacy, while a well-maintained pathway creates an attractive approach to the house. There is off-street parking for three cars in addition to the large single garage, which contains the tumble dryer.
